Garden Yoga Ideas for Kids (+ Free Printable)

Giselle · March 9, 2017 ·

Garden yoga ideas for kids | Kids Yoga Stories

Learn about the garden with these fun and easy garden yoga ideas!

At home or in your classroom, you can also use movement to teach your children about the garden. Children are born to move. They need to learn, be active, and have fun! Why not add yoga poses for kids to their learning experience?

To get started, clear a space so the children can move around safely, without bumping into any obstacles. Have your little gardeners wear comfy clothes perfect for gardening. They could practice on a yoga mat—or on a towel if you’re on a non-slip surface—pretending the mat is a garden. Explain that you’re going on a pretend walk through the garden and tell them to bring their creativity and imaginations.

Check out these garden yoga ideas for inspiration:

“These cards are such a fun way to have kids practice yoga and relate it to the garden. They are perfect for doing in the garden or inside when a child needs a little relaxation. There are so many possibilities on how to use them, and the pictures are beautiful.” – Carrie, Crafty Moms Share

“These are gorgeous! My kids are really finding the ‘characters’ of the cards to be really relatable, which makes it extra fun for them. I chose to print them four to a page and made them into little cards, perfect for our calm-down corner!” – Katie
